A word from the Editor

“There is a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.”

– Madeleine Albright

This quote was the theme of Mary Petruchius’ year as Chair of the Women and the Law Committee and we were reminded of it again at the Annual Meeting in June. Both Mary Petruchius and Paula Hudson Holderman were presented with awards and gifts in recognition of their work in the ISBA, especially with respect to their promotion of women and women’s issues. Mary Petruchius also received the Board of Governor’s Award for her work. Many thanks to both of them for their hard work and dedication!

We look forward to an equally great year with Tish Spunar-Sheats in charge, along with her fantastic new team including Julie Neubauer and Emily Masalski (right). ■
